How many monsters can you stuff in one truck?!

Ultra4 racer Vaughn Gittin Jr.’s RTR Vehicles has built what it bills as the first Godzilla V8-powered Ford Bronco.

The Bronco Fun-Runner LT started its life as a Bronco Badlands Sasquatch, but has been upgraded with a trailer full of new off-road equipment and Ford’s Godzilla 7.3-liter V8 crate motor rated at 430 hp and 475 lb-ft.

The engine breathes through a Borla exhaust and sends its power to the wheels through a 10-speed automatic transmission, beefed up axles and 74 Welds portal axles for increased ground clearance.

The truck rides on FOX Performance Elite remote coilover bypass shocks and 20-inch wheels wrapped in 42-inch Nitto Trail Grappler tires. RTR even swapped the standard electric power steering assist for hydraulic system tuned to handle the oversize rubber.

Rigid lights, an extra crossmember in the cargo and a package of RTR bumpers and accessories help toughen things up, while a set of four Recaro Cross Sportster ORV seats aim to do their best holding passengers in place during extreme off-roading.

RTR will be showing off the Fun-Runner at the Bronco Stampede off-road event in Moab, Utah, April 16-18. It is just a one-off concept for now, but RTR will gladly build you a Bronco just like it. Pricing for the monstrous creation starts at $249,999 plus the cost of a factory Bronco to get the project started.
